Round
of 13: Stevie Wonder/Whitney HoustonMarch 7

The
finalists have been chosen. The stage is set. And
there's a twist to boot. Our opening act to the Season
11 Finals and the road to Nokia Theatre.... R&B. And
it's going to be the MEN... versus the WOMEN on this...
the 400TH EPISODE OF AMERICAN IDOL!

The guys will take the
songbook of Stevie Wonder, no stranger to Idol. The ladies will pay
tribute to the late great Whitney Houston in their picks. Overseeing it
all is tonight's guest mentor, the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul herself, Mary
J. Blige.

Here's how this will work.
Tomorrow night, the bottom three men and the bottom three ladies will be
pulled. The lowest vote getters of both genders will face off against
the judges, and one of them will be sent packing by their hand.

1. Joshua Ledet - I Wish

Here's the problem
with this. This was too "happy and peppy" and not angry and passionate.
And his vocals were a screaming mess. This is not a good sign for Joshua
TROUBLE. Judges were SO WRONG.

2. Jermaine Jones - Knocks Me Off My Feet

I liked this. This had soul,
passion and a Luther Vandross vibe. Very pleasing. However, this is a
lesser known Stevie song. It's enough to go through. SAFE.

3. Colton Dixon - Lately

What the hell is this? This
up and down mess is Colton trying to be Adam Lambert - and it ain't
working. TROUBLE.

4. Deandre Brackensick - Master Blaster

I love his stage presence,
but his voice was so whispery thin, I couldn't hear it. But his stage
presence and better performance than the other men will keep him
through. SAFE.

5. Heejun Han - All in Love and Fair

Holy cow. This is, dare I
say...very very good. He is going on to next week. SAFE.

6. Jeremy Rosado - Ribbon in the Sky

I just don't get this. And
his voice was so whisper thin I didn't HEAR it. TROUBLE.

7. Philip Phillips - Superstition

He went all David Cook on us
with mixed results. While I like him and like what he did, he needs to
go out of the box even more. That being said, he is going on. SAFE.
